Talk about it with anyone you hope will be by your side if you are in a medical crisis. #Communication about your #endoflife preferences is so important. #palliativecare #hospice #deatheducation

**Don’t keep it to yourself!** Create an #advancedirective about your wishes at #endoflife, but *also* communicate those wishes to lots of folks - health care team, family, friends. Early communication is the key to increasing your chances for a good #death. #palliativecare #hospice #choiceindying

Did you know that at the end of life, the body naturally stops needing food and water. This isn’t a lack of care—it’s the body’s way of finding comfort. 💛

Hosting my monthly #death café this weekend. As always I’m struck by the disconnect between the oft-heard refrain of “people don’t want to talk about death” and the consistent relief and gratitude folks express when coming to a café where they can open up about it. #deatheducation #endoflife #grief

Having an #advancedirective is a very good thing, but having a #healthcare representative or #powerofattorney is still so important. Having someone to advocate for what *you* want if you are unable to speak for yourself is helpful more often than you’d think. #deatheducation #death #endoflife

Of the many #endoflife scenarios worth discussing with loved ones, how we want to manage #dementia can be among the toughest. Here is a tool that can help you think (and then talk) it through, from Compassion & Choices. #deatheducation #advancedirective

When we create a deathy resource, we add it as a downloadable to our webshop.

This makes it easier for our community to access, especially our international friends.

Shroud zine coming next month!

I’ve been invited to join friends for a #Friendsgiving dinner at the end of the month. Any guesses about

1) the side dish I’ll make and bring to share, and

2) how long it’ll take me to start talking about #endoflife planning at the dinner table?

Listening to an interview with @dremmaclare.bsky.social & Deb Rawlings on death doulas, end-of-life education & problematic death euphemisms. 100% recommend @deathstudiespod.bsky.social - their back catalogue of episodes is epic thedeathstudiespodcast.com

It’s #Death and Tacos 🌮 night at my house! (Instead of cake, I do a taco bar at my #deathcafe.) Since there’s no agenda, the guests drive the conversation. It’s always different & always promotes insight and emotional connection. #deatheducation #advancecareplanning

A powerful reminder: death isn’t a failure. It’s not about winning or losing—it’s a natural part of life.

Bones don't burn very well. The "ashes" a family receives after a cremation are actually bones that have gone through the cremulator. And before you ask: yes, there is a metal band called Cremulator. I checked.

#cremation #deathpositive #cremulator #mortuaryscience #deatheducation
Lime green text on a black rectangle reads: Cremulator (noun). A machine that crushes up the bones after a body has been cremated. That's right: ashes are actually bone dust. deadparentswhatnow.com

Last year Art City Radio asked us to create an advert about our work. They even paid us! LV came up with this (see below). And just like that, we have an impromtu theme tune for DEAD GOOD. Every deathy enterprise should have one.

Photo of Anubis. There is nothing to fear in death. Death is also transition. It is life review and rest before moving on to your next mission. Fear not, fear nothing.

“Death proximity makes life burn all the brighter!” ✨
I’m always here for kids’ movies that sprinkle in a little death education. The Wild Robot was a fantastic watch—highly recommend! 💛
